I stumbled across the old MogSport website by chance the other day - personally, I wasn't aware it existed.
According to the homepage "This website carries details of the Series from 1995 until 2010."
Although many of the links understandably no longer work there are some gems in there so do have a look at http://www.mogsport.net/.
I had a random rummage through the old newsletters - see http://www.mogsport.net/news/newsletters.html - as well as the results section - see http://www.mogsport.net/ms-results.html which contained many names still racing and even winning today!
A useful source of information for Sir Bob the Scribe? And something to keep us occupied until the new race season starts!
Pleased no-one has deleted the old site as it's a bit of a treasure trove...

Oh yes the good old days of Zandvoort 2006, lap record and engine blew up

Being of a meddlesome and troublesome disposition, may I be permitted to remind Mary and Jack that
“A poet is only a poet when he is writing a poem.”
Otherwise, fascinating reading with wit and ingenuity aplenty.
In this year of Grace I trust we shall all meet again...

????? Elucidate please!

Blessed Mary,
As requested I will elucidate (would you also like me to conjugate, simple or complex e.g. as in ego sum, or amo, amas amat or the conditional pluperfect?).
This from April 1999 The question for Jack was Racing or Footy.
As a consequence

Jack to Mary:
To challenge my manhood Is not very good
So just watch my nerve Round Coram Curve
So, sweet Mary
You’ll have to be wary
And beware
‘Cos I’ll be there
You’ll be watching my back Love Jack
Mary obviously understood this as a challenge and not only on the race track, to which she responded:
At Riches and Sear
I need have no fear
Down the back straight
With my trusty V eight
Dive into the Esses
With my flowing girl’s tresses Then through the Bomb Hole I’ll be keeping my cool
And so around Coram
In my mirrors I saw ’em Giving me some real hassle
As I lead them through Russell On to the Pit Straight
That really is great!
But what happened to Jack? Is he there near the
Jack replies
To the race for the truth for all to see
Went the V8 battle of Class D There’s Kelvin a’delvin through the Esses
With the touch of a surgeon the gear lever caresses
And Mary treading lightly Through Riches so tightly
Then there was Leigh (Thanks for the tea!)
At Russell he lost it
And cried out Oh! Something His resolve then did deepen And he would not be beaten So what could be sweeter Than victory for Peter!
I rest my case M'Lud!
ps
Peter Garland and Peter Sargent

Ah, it all comes back to me now!

Thank you oh Holy Peter.

‘’Then there was Leigh (Thanks for the tea!)
At Russell he lost it’’


I do recall someone advising changing down to second gear for this and yes I did ‘lose it’

Leigh for all to see
use second gear have no fear
the saying goes for all that knows
Use it or Lose it
